I would just like to thank JzPf and Kaiser for taking the time to assist a fellow forum member out by making enquirys about a couple of grabenpanzer sets for me.
Collectors helping fellow collectors is something that the majority of Pickelhaubes.com members excel at, it is a real credit to the...
1916 DWM P08, its in reasonable condition. Marked to MG Troop 107, I have an interest in MG related items so I was very happy to add this to my collection
Picked this up at an auction on Saturday along with a couple of other items which I will post also. I love the 1916 pattern buckles and this is my first Telegraph buckle.... Juan need a brass and white metal version now
Thanks for the comments and information, I really appreciate it. I am so pleased to have been able to add this mask to my collection and having some background information on the original owner is fantastic.
Thanks for your interest

This is the best I can do, it's hard to make out and quite faded as the top edge was once over the edge of the filter canister.It looks like it may be 2 company, Any insight into what regiment Peter belonged to would be much appreciated
Picked this up yesterday, a friend had it in his collection for a while then decided he would pass it on. Nice condition, the paper with the name was once stuck to the top of the filter.
Spike and helmet plate are m1915 style that has been plated with what looks like nickel, chin strap looks ok and liner shows age. It's a shame it has been messed with. Reserve is low. If it's cheap enough I may buy it.
Hi All
Don't have much experience with the metal helmets, this one has been repainted and the metal fittings plated. Is it good, bad or just plain ugly? It's a lot in an auction this weekend.sorry the pics are rubbish.
Thanks

Gunner2 the Rifle is in my gun room, not a store although at the moment it looks like one. An association I am involved with is hosting an auction in April, the Gew 91 has been submitted as an auction lot hence I will have an opportunity to buy. I am storing and assisting with cataloguing for...
Hi All
Had another look at this rifle today
I have found a second regimental marking on the barrel band that has been struck out, quite interesting.
the struck out markings are as follows 7.A.F.E 4243.
Nose Cap marking as follows (have seen more of this in daylight) LD.AF.18. 1. 102.

Picked up this today a nice MG marked ersatz bayonet. I have been looking for a MG marked bayonet for quite some time so this is a first for me. Blade is odd, it looks upside down to me with the sharp edge to the top....I know Gus will tell me its because it is in the Southern Hemisphere and...
